The country has got the second indigenous anti-corona vaccine. Following the recommendation from the Government Expert Committee, DCGI has given emergency approval for the use of Zydus Cadila's corona vaccine ZyCoV-D. This is the second indigenous vaccine after Covaxin. It can be given to people above 12 years. This vaccine will be given in three doses.
The special thing is that at present, where the presence of RNA vaccine is highest in the world, this vaccine of Zydus Cadila is the world's first DNA-based vaccine. An expert committee of the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) on Covid-19 considered Zydus Cadila's application for approval of Zycov-D on Thursday. It then recommended the Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) allow it for emergency use.
DCGI approved on Friday. Ahmedabad-based pharmaceutical major Zydus Cadila had on July 1 sought approval from DCGI for emergency use of its vaccine Joycov-D.
